The Mathematical Science Research Institute is developing and producing a 15-minute pilot for a regular mathematics slot in a new PBS magazine format program that is being developed. Keith Devlin will be responsible for the mathematics content as well as appearing as the on-camera host. The segments will be based on Devlin's popular radio "Math Guy" segments that have been appearing on NPR's Weekend Edition. The topic for the pilot is the Clay Millennium Problems. The pilot is being produced by Jon Palfreman, an award-winning science documentary producer. Evaluation of the pilot will be conducted by Rockman et. al. If successful, a future segment would explore a range of mathematics topics including mathematics education, epidemiology, scientific visualization, uses and misuses of statistics, how the brain acquires and processes mathematics, and the mathematics of voting.

数学科学研究所正在开发和制作一个15分钟的试点定期数学插槽在一个新的PBS杂志格式的程序，正在开发中。 基思德夫林将负责数学内容，以及出现在相机主机。 这些片段将基于德夫林的流行电台“数学家伙”的片段，已出现在NPR的周末版。 试播集的主题是粘土千年问题。 该飞行员由获奖的科学纪录片制片人乔恩·帕尔弗曼制作。 试点评估将由Rockman et.如果成功的话，未来的部分将探讨一系列数学主题，包括数学教育，流行病学，科学可视化，统计的使用和误用，大脑如何获得和处理数学，以及投票的数学。
